Buy A Pair Of Shoes And Get A Man For Free


''Get a pair of shoes from Shoes Shoes Shoes and get a man for free''

A Malaysian retailer, Shoes Shoes Shoes hooks up women buying shoes with men offering to pay a portion of the price (sometimes the full price if they like you enough) in return for a date.

Here is how it works: The men sign up on this dating site called Lunch Actually and pick out 20 shoes that they would like to see a potential date wear. The guys the pledge to pay anywhere from 10 to 100 percent of the cost of the shoe. When a woman buys a pair of shoes at the Kuala Lumpur store, she can then go online and check out her potential 'shoe-gar daddies' profiles. After one date, a woman can be reimbursed by her match.

The shoe retailer has apparently already received success stories from the promotion.

Pitty they dont have mens shoes!

SA DESIGNERS FOR EDGARS: NAKED APE

Model turned designer Shaldon Kopman is the creative genius behind Naked Ape; a sartorial fashion house and consultancy, Shaldon’s current core focus, was established in 1998 but only came to life in 2005. Shaldon established a niche market due in part to the lack of well fitted, quality and affordable menswear
garments leading to his bespoke service. It has been a challenging and rewarding task refining and sourcing skilled tailors, and appropriate designers to bring this vision to life. He has arrived and it’s has been a remarkable journey thus far with so much knowledge gained and so much more to come. The key to success is built on understanding, patience, love and respect for his co-workers as together they craft
fine attire for their appreciative valued clients. Here's a sneak peak at the collection that will be available at Edgars.

SA DESIGNERS FOR EDGARS: ROMAN HANDT



Roman Handts Denim Collection; Available At Edgars
Graduating from LISOF in 2000, Roman Handt has worked as a tailor and pattern maker both internationally and locally with small, highly niched companies focused on quality and craftsmanship. Two important things he brings to his own eponymous label ‘Roman Handt’ which was launched at a glittering event in 2011.
Having seen his clothes on both industry leaders and style mavens around the hot-spots of Jo’burg, the typical ‘Roman Handt’ wearer is introduced luxurious combinations of fabrics not found in the mainstream South African market. His clothes, though exquisitely designed and tailored, are for everyday use and not just for special occasions usually associated with personal or custom tailored garments.
